The conversion of the bathrooms to storage <br />does reduce the heads from 3 to 2 but the savings is very nominal (literally a few dollars). And the switch from a GWB <br />ceiling to just an open ceiling would make the pendent heads become uprights, which again is not really a savings to <br />speak of. <br />Making this in to a dry system or preaction would certainly add to the cost. The heads alone for a dry system are <br />considerably higher plus the addition of a dry valve, so that really isn't an option that would outweigh putting electric <br />heaters in this area. <br />Some savings will come from the lack of plumbing for bathrooms, but since it is a mere 140 or so s.f. of storage space, <br />the best savings would be to enclose the space as inaccessible and not utilize it as storage. That would eliminate heaters, <br />plumbing, electric and Fire required because a concealed, noncombustible space does not require protection. <br />From a fire protection standpoint we have the most economical system in there now other than not protecting the <br />space at all and closing it off. <br />Let me know if you have any questions or ideas, Id be happy to look at any alternatives. <br />Thanks <br />AlichaeNodsey - Designer <br />Allied Fire Protection, Inc. <br />80 Rupert Road - Raleigh, NC 27603 <br />O: 919.772.9200 <br />E: MGodsey @alliedfire.net <br />www.alliedfire.net <br />rol. i 1 <br />L�j q-1,'A'0- <br />From: Evia Nelson [mailto:enelson @taloving.com] <br />Sent: Wednesday, January 17, 2018 1:33 PM <br />To: Michael Godsey <br />Cc: Evia Nelson; Ray Carrino <br />Subject: Sportsplex Connector - FIRE PROTECTION <br />Hey Mike — <br />
